This mornings Bible reading in Job 1:1-3:26. Really makes you think differently ( or at least I do) about problems and struggles in life. Job had it all, money, great family, friends and he was happy. Times of testing did come for Job, when everything seemed to come crashing down all at the same time. I've had days where everything that could go wrong did, and more! I think sometimes we think to ourselves: I did something wrong and God is punishing me, but maybe you have done everything right and God is just testing you. We half to trust God in the hard times in life and with the things we do not understand ( this is sooooo easy to write, but hard to walk out at times).
A passage that stuck out to me from Job was " The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away, may the name of the Lord be praised". I mean really with all that Job had gone through he said " may the name of the Lord be praised"!! I pray for a heart like Job's!! Even in the hardest of hardest times, I want to say not just with my mouth but really with my heart MAY THE NAME OF THE LORD STILL BE PRAISED!!
